If there's one thing that audiences can't get enough of, it's a pulse-pounding survival thriller that will have them on the edge of their seats up until the credits roll. In 2015, Jake Gyllenhaal and Jason Clarke teamed up to star in the haunting biographical film Everest, which tells the harrowing true story of the 1996 Mount Everest disaster that tragically claimed the lives of eight climbers. The unnerving picture chronicles the survival efforts of two expedition groups as they fight to make it off the mountain after a brutal blizzard strikes, forcing them to contend with harsh and unforgiving weather conditions.

Everest became both a critical and commercial success, captivating audiences with its gripping premise and deeply haunting cinematography as well as its powerhouse performances by its stacked ensemble cast, with moviegoers being left emotionally drained by the devastating events depicted in the thriller. Let's explore the true story behind the...

While Netflix's slick but empty "The Electric State" has added to an already bleak streaming landscape, Jake Gyllenhaal is having nothing short of a streaming renaissance. Gyllenhaal's creepy sci-fi horror "Life" is a hit on Prime Video at the same time his and Michael Peña's action thriller is crushing it over on Max. Now, yet another Gyllenhaal-led thriller is ascending the Netflix charts, meaning the actor has claimed a spot in the rankings of the biggest streamer in the game at the same time he's dominating rival platforms — though he's had a bit of help with his latest streaming triumph.

2015's "Everest" is a survival thriller based on the real 1996 Mount Everest disaster that saw eight climbers lose their lives while trying to reach the highest point on Earth. The movie follows two expedition groups who are hit by a freak storm on their way to the top of the titular mountain.

1996 marked the deadliest year on Everest at that time, with 12 climbers lost, sparking a tragic reminder of the mountain's inherent risks. The 1996 Everest Disaster recreated in the film highlighted the awe and horror faced by climbers trapped in the deadly storm. Experienced climbers faced insurmountable elements during the tragic expedition, with blizzards, delays, and technical mistakes leading to deaths.

2015's Everest was based on the true-life Mount Everest Disaster of 1996, recreating the overwhelming challenges faced by the real climbers who were trapped on that mountain almost thirty years ago. One of the single deadliest days in the recorded history of the world's tallest peak, the film recounts the expedition taken on by two groups of mountaineers that ended in death for eight climbers, including the two experienced leaders of the expeditions, Rob Hall (Jason Clarke) and Scott Fischer (Jake Gyllenhaal).

The fates of Everest's real-life inspiration served as a tragic...

Everest is a gripping survival film based on a true story of climbers battling a storm on Mount Everest. The ensemble cast, including Jason Clarke and Jake Gyllenhaal, delivers powerful performances.

The 2015 film Everest included a large ensemble cast from all over the globe as they brought the roles of the people they play to life. The film opened at the Venice Film Festival in 2015 and was a commercial success worldwide, grossing over $200 million at the box office. It was also a critical success, with critics praising the acting and the cinematography. The film also got nominated for Outstanding Action Performance by a Stunt Ensemble in a Motion Picture at the 2016 Screen Actors Guild Awards.

The Everest movie highlights the reality that dead bodies of climbers who die on Mount Everest are often left where they fall. Over 310 people have died climbing Mount Everest and more than 200 bodies remain on the mountain. Retrieval attempts are dangerous and costly, and mountaineering tradition often dictates that bodies remain where they fall.

Contains potentially upsetting content and discussion of death

Baltasar Kormákur's 2015 survival thriller Everest does an effective job of retelling the true story of the 1996 Mount Everest disaster, and in doing so highlights a dark truth about the famous peak. As the movie demonstrates, any expedition to Everest is fraught with danger. However, it's because of the extremes that the mountain represents that some things that would be considered standard procedure on most expeditions are simply unfeasible. One of these reveals the horrifying reality of what climbing Everest really means.

Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Jason Clarke, Josh Brolin,...

Everest highlights the dangers of climbing Mount Everest, emphasizing the physical, emotional, and mental challenges involved. Inexperienced climbers underestimate the risks and dangers of the mountain, leading to disastrous consequences. The film portrays the harsh reality of climbing Everest, focusing on the devastating impact it can have on climbers and their families if the hikers aren't fully prepared.

The ending of Everest sees the surviving climbers tearfully reunite with their loved ones at the New Zealand airport while Beck reunites with his wife Peach. Based on the 1996 Mount Everest disaster, Everest opens with Rob Hall, a guide from Adventure Consultants, preparing to climb Mount Everest while his pregnant wife Jan stays home, with Rob promising to be there for the birth of their first child. Rob is accompanied by clients Doug Hansen, Yasuko Namba, the second Japanese woman to climb the Seven Summits, Jon Krakauer, a writer for Outside magazine,...

MGM has moved “Bill & Ted Face the Music” back two weeks to Aug. 28 to avoid opening against Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet.”

MGM announced the move Friday, a day after Warner Bros. pushed “Tenet” back from July 31 to Aug. 12. Disney also delayed the theatrical release of “Mulan” for a third time from July 24 to Aug. 21, while Paramount’s “Without Remorse” moved from Oct. 2 to Feb. 26. Tom Clancy’s “Without Remorse,” stars Michael B. Jordan as John Clark.

Most movie theaters closed in mid-March due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Major cinema chains in the U.S., such as AMC, Regal and Cinemark, have been aiming to resume business in July but studios appear to be worried that viewers may be reluctant to return despite safety protocols such as reduced capacity, social distancing and mask-wearing being enforced.

Currently, there are 1,072 U.S theaters open, including 284 drive-ins, up 20% from a week ago, according to Comscore.

MGM’s international distribution and acquisitions division has acquired all remaining international territories (excluding China) for “Bill & Ted Face the Music” from Endeavor Content.

In the sequel releasing on Aug. 14, Keanu Reeves will again portray Ted “Theodore” Logan and Alex Winter will reprise his role as Bill S. Preston, Esq., as a follow up 1989’s “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure” and 1991’s “Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey.” Their daughters are played by Samara Weaving and Brigette Lundy-Paine. The film also stars Kid Cudi, Kristen Schaal, Anthony Carrigan, Erinn Hayes, Jayma Mays, Jillian Bell, Holland Taylor and Beck Bennett.

MGM had previously signed Germany, Greece, Latin America and the Middle East for “Bill & Ted Face the Music.” Under the new deal, announced Thursday, MGM will also distribute the film throughout France, Italy, Spain, Japan, South Korea, Scandinavia, Taiwan, Thailand, Hong Kong, Hungary, Turkey, Benelux, Bulgaria, Singapore and Romania.

More time has passed since these stories per published than had passed for the whole history of the Doom Patrol to that point. As with so many things in corporate comics, in 2018 we’re now deep in second- or third-order nostalgia, memories of particular revised versions of things that have been around, and generating income for some corporation, for five or eight decades.

I tend to think Grant Morrison, and his Doom Patrol characters, would be just fine with that: they already think the world is random and bizarre and mostly unbelievable, a thin scrim over chaos and madness and conspiracy theories and various kinds of unlikely mysticism.

Doom Patrol was always pretty weird, right from the initial ’60s version by Arnold Drake, Bob Haney and Bruno Premiani. Introductions in the current editions of the Morrison run lean heavily into that: the idea that this team was always “freaks” and “misfits,...

Whoa! After nearly 30 years and a lot of back and forth talk, the duo of Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter are returning to their iconic roles as Bill & Ted in a new film. It was officially announced today that Bill & Ted Face the Music is officially happening.

The film will see the director Dean Parisot (Galaxy Quest) join Reeves and Winter with Chris Matheson as writer. This third film in the Bill & Ted franchise will also have Steven Soderbergh serve as executive producer.

This third installment in the franchise will follow the two leads as middle-aged adults as they once again time travel to complete their destiny of saving the world with their song. To me, it kind of sounds similar to the second film, Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey. It was reported that George Carlin‘s character Rufus would be a “deep part of the [third] film.”

Just recently Reeves...

Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves will reprise their roles as time-trekking bandmates in a third installment of the “Bill & Ted” franchise. International sales for “Bill & Ted Face the Music” are underway courtesy of Bloom at the Cannes Film Festival, which launches Tuesday night. The film, now in pre-production, reunites the leads following “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure” (1989) and “Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey” (1991).

“We couldn’t be more excited to get the whole band back together again,” said Winter and Reeves in a statement. All three entries in the trilogy came from screenwriters Chris Matheson and Ed Soloman, and the stars describe this long-awaited script as “amazing.” “Galaxy Quest” and “Red 2” director Dean Parisot — winner of a 1988 Live Action Short Film Oscar for “The Appointments of Dennis Jennings” — will oversee production, rounding out the Winter- and Reeves-dubbed “dream team.” Fellow Academy Award recipient Steven Soderbergh is set to executive produce,...

Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter will re-team on “Bill & Ted Face the Music” — the third installment of the comedy franchise.

Reeves will again play Ted “Theodore” Logan and Winter is portraying Bill S. Preston Esq. The two previous titles were “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure” in 1989 and “Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey” in 1991.

Original creators Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon have penned the script, with Dean Parisot (“Galaxy Quest”) confirmed to direct. Scott Kroopf (“Limitless”) will produce with Alex Lebovici and Steve Ponce of Hammerstone Studios, with Steven Soderbergh executive producing alongside Scott Fischer, John Ryan Jr., and John Santilli.

“We couldn’t be more excited to get the whole band back together again,” Reeves and Winter said. “Chris and Ed wrote an amazing script, and with Dean at the helm, we’ve got a dream team!”

MGM is set to release the film domestically under its Orion Pictures banner. Endeavor Content negotiated the deal.

“Bill & Ted Face the Music,” which is currently in production, will follow the two men no longer the time-traveling teenagers we’ve come to know — they are now responsible adults. They’re writing dozens of songs but not one seems to stick, until someone from the future tells them that only their song can save the world. Soon, they embark on a time-traveling adventure to save the universe.

“We couldn’t be more excited to get the whole band back together again. Chris and Ed wrote an amazing script, and with Dean at the helm we’ve got a dream team!” Reeves and Winter said in a statement.
